Damon Bailey

And then-

And you're o- you're old enough that, um, you might've been at that theater with Damon Bailey.

You don't even know.

I mean, it, it-

I was trying to think the last time Ohio State/Indiana's been the number one show in town in any sport.

I guess the Big Ten Championship game, but you gotta go back to basketball, and Jim Jackson, and Damon Bailey back in the day, and that is dating myself.

I wanna get your guys' sense of the weekend, sense of the game.

I will say there are two injuries for Ohio State that have been announced.

And, and Charles will relate, and, and there's a chance Akh will relate.

Uh, Scap, you may be too young to relate, but Arch Manning is Damon Bailey.

Does anybody remember Damon Bailey?

Yes.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Uh, made famous in the book Season on the Brink, John Feinstein writing a book about Indiana Hoosiers and Bobby Knight.

And Bob Knight references some eighth or ninth grade basketball player, and Damon Bailey becomes the biggest deal.

What a player is doing at age 16 or 17 is a much better indicator of future success.

But with all of the hype surrounding Bayley, it was just too much.

And it even caught the curiosity of Bob Knight.

Now after the game ended, Bob Knight was overheard saying to his assistant that Damon Bailey was already better than any of their own guards at Indiana.

Charlie Becker caught three balls, go to score three touchdowns.

Now, Charlie Becker is on the level of Damon Bailey and Steve Alford at Indiana.

What level is that? Randy Whitman actually was in the middle of that too.

Probably Randall L.

When you walk on campus, all the girls are walking around you.

I remember walking with Alford when we were in college going, "Hey, Steve, man, just stay close to me." [laughs] Damon Bailey had harems following him.

Charlie Becker, the same thing, and Charlie Becker's a stud.

You know, Indiana won 38 to nothing over the fighting Jack Harbaughs, whose got it better than us, of Western Kentucky, the Hilltoppers, and people are bitching.

Charlie Becker caught three balls, scored three touchdowns.

Now, Charlie Becker is on the level of Damon Bailey and Steve Alford at Indiana.

What level is that? Randy Whitman actually was in the middle of that too, probably Randall L.

When you walk on campus, all the girls are walking around you.
